Regular physical activity is related to many factors in a university student’s environment. The coronavirus pandemic and the resulting lockdown have restricted elements of our aim this study was evaluate students’ sedentary behaviour at two points time: before during lockdown. As secondary aim, we also wanted look changes from other (alcohol, tobacco, diet, stages change, symptoms anxiety/depression sociodemographic characteristics). We conducted an observational, cross-sectional, pre-post with cut-off points. Two hundred thirteen students took part study. main dependent variables were sitting time, measured using International Physical Activity Questionnaire—Short Form (IPAQ-SF). Parametric non-parametric tests used for paired unpaired data, as well group-stratified analysis. During lockdown, both weekly (MD: −159.87; CI: −100.44, −219.31) time increased −106.76; −71.85, −141.67). In group analysis, differences observed relation gender, year study, BMI, alcohol consumption, tobacco use, anxiety/depression, Mediterranean living situation stage change. results showed increase globally by group.

Study Eligibility Criteria included observational studies cross-sectional longitudinal designs. To qualify inclusion must tested association PA or anxiety, using linear logistic regressions. Depression been assessed validated rating scales. Appraisal Synthesis Methods Effect sizes were represented by fully adjusted standardized betas odds ratios (OR) alongside 95% confidence intervals (CI). case effects could not be obtained, unstandardized presented indicated. Results identified total 21 (4 longitudinal, 1 retrospective analysis, 16 cross-sectional), including information 42,293 (age 6–70 years, median female = 68%) participants from five continents. early evidence suggests that people who performed on regular basis higher volume frequency kept routines stable, showed less symptoms anxiety. For instance, those reporting time spent moderate vigorous had 12–32% lower chances presenting depressive 15–34% Conclusion Performing associated maintain Covid-19, specific volitional motivational skills might paramount overcome barriers.
